Deep ruby red in appearance. Dark berries on the nose with some cocoa, nutmeg and a little savory. Medium tannins (6/10) and medium plus bodied. Quite dry on the palate with dark cocoa powder, black currants, cassis, gravel and a little tobacco. Long finish. Drink till 2025.

We’ve had this for yonks, as we would say in England. The nose displays lovely black cherries along with tertiary notes of tobacco and cedar. Ethereal on the palate. So many layers and complexity. Perfect weight and balance. Finishes with kirsch and great tannins - brilliant effort.

So rich and flavorful. With a few more years it will get even better.

We brought this and having it open for nearly 6 hours and then decanting it made a huge difference. Last time we had it we decanted it for an hour or so before having it and it was a bit harsh. This pup needs a lot of oxygen.
